Adding to the mountain of evidence that Israel is engaged in a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera on Thursday aired footage of what the news outlet reported was an Israeli drone targeting four Palestinians in Khan Younis last month.

Those killed by the unmanned aerial vehicle in the rubble of the southern Gaza city appear to be unarmed teenagers or young men. According to a translation of the coverage, they were not identified in the reporting.

Tariq Kenney-Shawa, Al-Shabaka’s U.S. policy fellow, said: “This is among the worst footage I’ve seen. Not only were these boys clearly unarmed and present no threat whatsoever, but they were struck multiple times even after stumbling/crawling away. There is no way they could have been considered combatants. This is unreal.”

        Where’s the evidence justifying the killing of these people? Or do we not care about the rule of law?

        I guess in the context of the genocide Israel is committing there’s not much room for that kind of thing.

      You kill a bunch of people, you’d better be damn sure it’s justifiable - you know - by looking at the evidence. Basic rule of law stuff.

      Where’s the evidence? We both know there isn’t any - much like there’s nothing that would justify Israel’s broader genocide.

      How do you think evidence works?

          Feel free to reach out if you’d like to take a break from defending warcrimes by a genocidal regime and provide any evidence.

            • Not a proven warcrime
            • Provide evidence of what??

            Now you’re just repeating the same words over and over again with no correlation. Holy shit. Did I get baited into a “discussion” with ChatGPT 1.0? There’s no other explanation
